In 2002 a few employees and their families were dealing with some serious health issues. It was then that a small group formed hoping to make a difference and raise money for charitable organizations. Over the years we’ve participated in many events including Light the Night Walk, the Walk MS, and the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure at North Park.

We have adopted angels from the Salvation Army Angel Tree, donated toys to Our Children’s House at Baylor, and collected canned food for the North Texas Food Bank. The physicians at POD over the years have generously matched our donations dollar for dollar. We have donation boxes at our check in and check out area. We greatly appreciate every donation.

Our group, now known as the POD Squad, has grown to include most of the employees. Our priority this year is the Food 4 Kids program with the North Texas Food Bank, the Walk MS, the Genesis Women’s Shelter, and the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure.

Following are a few photos from our POD Squad adventures:

Strep throat is the common term for streptococcal pharyngitis. Pharyngitis means an inflammation or infection of the throat. Strep refers to the causative bacteria – group A streptococcus. The group A Streptococcus bacteria can also cause skin infections. Interestingly, there are other types of strep bacteria but only group A causes throat infections.

Safe Sleep & Healthy Swaddling by Dr. Hillary Lewis

Swaddling is well described as a soothing technique to calm your child and promote better sleep. Because newborns have an immature nervous system with active startle reflexes, swaddling prevents infants from frequent awakenings during sleep, thus lengthening their naps and nighttime sleep.

Bugged by Bug Bites?

Most insect bites usually cause a small red bump and begin to disappear the next day. Often times, it may look like localized hives, one large or several small ones. The red bump is the body's allergic reaction to the venom injected by the insect. For itchy insect bites, apply calamine or a 1% hydrocortisone cream. If the bite is extremely itchy, try an oral antihistamine, like Benadryl.
